Big/Blue Sky is still right at the top along with the fractal verbs. But yea the dynamic suite in helix totally changed the line 6 fx game. Dynamic plate is utterly brilliant and does remind of the warmth and complexity of some of the Strymon sounds.

Yeah I would still like to see JNC try to dial in the Big Sky Cloud sound on the Dynamic Plate Reverb and even using other Helix effects with it if needed to see if its possible to get close, instead of all these other units he has like the smaller Cloudburst or Chase Bliss, as all these other reverbs are great, but the Big Sky is still the top dog for most, and the Cloud setting is the one that really defines that pedal.

I agree Jon. I ran a Stomp based board with analog drives and my Neunaber verb in the FX loop for 5 years and when they released the Dynamic verbs in Helix, thats when I finally decided to sell everything and go full Helix. Theyre very good man. I do miss the Nuenaber sound, only because it became such a huge part of MY sound. But I feel the Dynamic verbs are every bit as good, just a slightly different flavor.

No wonder I haven't likes the Dynamic reverbs:I've been doing the exact opposite things to try and achieve exactly what you're achieving here. Just pulling the damping further and further down and compensating with the high and low filters. My favorite reverb in the Helix ecosystem hath thus far been the reverb side of the Heliosphere delay. Often set to 100 wet on the B path with the reverse delay and/or octave reverb before it and sometimes the Centaur after it in stereo for some grit

I'm doing a repeat viewing of this 6 mo later (reminded by your new post of the backing track on Patreon). I have to echo @jasonkucharski7411 in saying this is one of your "keeper" openings. I just love the melodies-not just the opening theme in the lead, but the melodies you come up with throughout. This is one I'll have to slice off of YT for my audio player (I didn't just say I'd do that!). Re: the topic of the video, that dynamic plate reverb used for the background motif is extraordinarily nicely tuned for guitar-you were able to add lots of ambience, with the direct tone never seeming muddied by the verb. BTW, damping doesn't control how much hi end is "let into the reverb chamber" (so to speak); you can do that with EQ if you want. Rather, damping refers to how much the hi end gets damped as it bounces around the virtual room. Roughly speaking, it controls the hi-end absorption of the (virtual) walls/floor/ceiling. -Tom

Thanks for this informative video. I've been pondering how to build a preset that inspired behavior of a piano damper pedal. On a real piano, if I play a C Major arpeggio while stepping on the damper pedal, the piano sustains a C Major chord - sadly the Poly Sustain effect does not to do this. I'm thinking Dynamic Plate with mix or decay controlled by expression pedal might give me what I want. Toe down on the the exp. pedal to sustain everything I'm playing, toe up to fade off the sustained notes.

The dynamic reverbs were a step forward for helix but I still feel that they pale in comparison to what fractal reverbs offer, both in terms of richness of tone and flexibility (infinite hold, stack, etc). Set a fractal verb to ultra quality, play a chord and it just envelopes you in that rich 3d sound. Almost like an old eventide or lexicon rack, though not quite there.

John Cordy did a Halo -type reverb/delay in the Helix awhile back that sounded wonderful.

Funny, I'm the opposite - I want granular control of sound design! That being said, I play both guitar and synth through my Stomp, as well as use Native for production, so I'm comfortable with sound design. I find that the Helix ecosystem excels at this I'd mostly love to see a Eventide vs Line 6 shootout bc Eventide is arguably regarded the gold standard for digital effects. There's a surprising lack of decent comparisons of the two. I suspect that the L6 will hold its own better than most would expect. There's a sort of narrative out there that L6 effects (esp reverbs) are lacking and that they can't be as good as dedicated effects units. Would love to see someone test that

Yes if using a modeler you need FRFR or studio monitors or headphones. Plugging into front of amp will color the sound as that's an amp into an amp unless you just use modeler for effects and not the amp. If using amp then go into effects loop of the amp and turn don't use a cab block. See Jason Sadites channel lots of good tips

@@ThomasHope73 not a Stomp user but I've messed around with Helix Native. The compressors seem to work great for me. Especially after they added the gain reduction meters, I can easily dial in what I want. The only thing I'm missing is a model of something along the lines of an 1176.

What I heard: This guy works at MI6 and designed the reverbs. What you said: This guy works at Line 6. 😂 USA and the UK two peoples separated by a common language!

Hi Jon, do sound guys like dly/rev intensive sounds? Or they do prefer dry?

Hi Skypor, I know, you didn't ask ME, but as a sound guy and guitarist using quite a bit of delays especially I would say this: If it's an integral part of the sound like e.g. in the opening song: sure! It's part of the instrument for me. If it's a more complex arrangement and the keyboard player and the other guitarist bring their FX as well, it might get cluttered, undefined and useless. Especially in less than perfect sounding venues, less is more. It's like seasoning a good dish: it can make it delicious and too much can ruin it. I always soundcheck with all FX the way I like them on stage and a good sound guy will let me know, when it is too much... Enjoy experimenting, m. 🙂

Very nice indeed. Have you tried the UAFX DEL VERB pedal yet. Sounds like quality algorithms for Plate, Hall and Spring verbs.... Also has delay and an expansive app for both too. Also.... would you kiss your bass player while doing a live gig in Malaysia? Just a little bit of current The 1975 politics😉
